Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 89 89. Rules of the City

Will I affect the sorceress' spellcasting?

While looking at the two sorceresses opposite, Lan En couldn't help making a guess.

"Shadow does not affect spellcasting, I don't know, but I think if you nod, this Kayla Metz can't wait to untie her belt right now and throw you on the chair."

Mentos, who was still working overtime to build the interception algorithm, took the time to complain.

Then Lan En put him in the overtime position.

Compared with Keira, who is greedy for beauty, Triss, who was really disturbed by Lan En's magic power, seemed more rational at this time.

Of course, this may have something to do with Kayla Metz's bold style.

"Anyway, let's calm down, ladies."

Lan En sat on the cashmere chair and stretched comfortably.The sorceresses really enjoy it, there's no denying that.

"I am the debt collector entrusted by Aretusa, and the two of you are Aretusa's network."

"Let's just get down to business. Get this mess out of the way."

"Oh! Yes, business!"

Triss covered Keira's chest tightly without any trace, and nodded repeatedly.

"The slave trade in Temeria, this is absolutely intolerable!"

Lan Enxin said that I can't bear it either!

Which normal person can bear seeing the slave trade?Purely transporting and domesticating human beings as goods and animals, who can't stand high blood pressure?
But I'm here for information!

But in Lan En's inquiring eyes, the two powerful female spellcasters ignored the influence of that pretty face at this moment.

Frowning and shaking his head slightly.

"To be honest, we didn't find anything."

Keira Metz, the sorceress who is bold and coquettish both in dress and behavior, said softly.

When she was speaking, her expression not only showed the difficulty of not fulfilling the college's instructions, but also a strong sense of unwillingness.

In the blink of an eye, Lan En went through the other party's information in his brain.

Among the sorceresses sent by Arethusa to Vizima as advisors to the king's royal family.

Both Triss and Keira are passionate about politics.

But it is different from Triss who really cares about the future of the country and is worried about the impact of politics on the country.

Kayla's passion lies in the pleasure that power can bring.

In other words, this person has a very strong desire for power.

Without making a fuss, Lan En spoke calmly.

"It seems that the other party's preparations are beyond imagination. Even beyond the imagination of the two of you."

What situation would make a person who has a strong desire for power and already has a lot of power feel uncomfortable?

——she discovered a field that her own power could not touch.

This kind of discomfort even made Keira pinch the handle of the chair next to her bitterly, and her physical desire for Lan En was completely forgotten.

Triss' complexion also became serious.

She put half of her body weight on the armrest, leaned forward and said seriously.

"Lan, I don't know your educational background. You demon hunters are very mysterious, and we all thought you were a group of solitary barbarians before. But today, the fluency of your temporary insertion of [Words of the Soul] It means that even if you are among the warlocks, you are at least a very smart person."

"Please speak." Lan En leaned back, crossed his palms in front of his lower abdomen, and pretended to be listening attentively.

"Although I haven't received much education, I still understand a little bit of the truth."

With the index finger and thumb of the studded leather glove, the pen draws a "little bit" gesture.

"So, I think you shouldn't have a problem understanding what I'm going to say next."

Triss pursed her lips when she spoke, as if she wanted to carefully consider her next words to lower the threshold of understanding.

"There are rules within the city and within the country, Lane. You stay in the wild like Waylon all the year round, away from human habitation. So you can see people fighting each other there, sword against sword, sword against sword. Straightforward and wild, fierce and ruthless."

"But that's only in the wild, outside the civilized world. There is no systematic surveillance system, no complete infrastructure, no strong security forces."

"So, the human beings there will give up part of their civilization and return to the natural state."

When Triss was speaking, she raised the palm of one hand and put it aside.This represented what she said was a wild environment.

Immediately afterwards, she held up another palm to Lan En.

"But in cities, the country has complete supervision and security forces. The complexity of the distribution of these forces will even exceed the imagination of professionals!"

"In a city, everyone is related to someone else, everyone pays someone else's wages, everyone receives someone else's wages. Official institutions belonging to Temeria, through They have a huge amount of accounting and finance to capture the information in the process of gold coin circulation."

"Is the main business of the intelligence agency to release spies? No. It is to find hidden information in the financial statements and material statements accumulated during the operation of the city!"

"Cities have rules, Lane."

In order to take care of this demon hunter who was "far away from civilized society", Triss repeated it with an emphatic tone.

"If someone buys goods but doesn't show them on the books, it will cause misreconciliation of goods and goods. If this happens frequently in a certain city, then the city will lose the trust of merchants and become depressed."

"This is not some big man, holding a goblet and saying 'get this done' lightly, and there will be no trace! If you want to cover up the trace, you need to pay a cost! A huge cost! Even the act of paying the cost, Both require enormous power as a threshold."

Lan En listened quietly to this medieval-level management course.

The core concept in Triss's speech is: whatever has been done will inevitably leave traces in the civilized world.

There are many traces of ledgers, invoices, and money flows.

As long as you are doing business, no matter whether it is illegal or legal, you must have this set of things.

Because even the illegal business done by illegal organizations still needs these things as vouchers when dividing accounts, which are used to reassure people, prove the leader's leadership, and encourage his subordinates to continue to work hard with him.

Without this set of tools, it is impossible to think about making the business bigger, and even the organization itself will be dismantled on the spot.

But now, Triss looked seriously at Lan En's amber cat eyes, and said every word.

"But Keira and I can't find any trace!"

The pupils of those cat eyes shrank slightly, which let Triss know that the other party understood what she meant.

"Kayla checked with me about the land and sea freight, and there is no trace of all the freight manifests and property invoices going back fifteen days!"

"The information on this list and the invoice has been handled by departments such as dock management, city gate inspection, tax verification, bank financial docking, etc. There are at least [-] people handling it! This is still only a position that needs to verify the information."

"But this information has gone through at least three hundred 'networks', but there is still no goods or money that is not reconciled!"

"Can you understand what kind of power this is?"

Keira didn't care whether Lan En's thinking could keep up, she sneered bitterly and continued.

"A municipal employee has to bear the risk of losing his job to pay the bills, and the benefits we get are less. One month's salary is calculated as ten oren. 300 people are three thousand oren! And more importantly"

"At least [-] Oren flowed through the hands of at least [-] city officials, and our financial supervision department didn't notice it at all! Hehe."

Keira raised the wine glass on the table to Lan En, with a half-smile.

"Thanks to you, handsome witcher. Otherwise, the two of us would have thought that we had established ourselves in this city."
